About Acupuncture:
Acupuncture is a healing art form that dates back 2,000-5,000 years. It has been used by billions of people, all over the world.
I practice a style of acupuncture based on the principles of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). TCM is a comprehensive system of medicine that has been used for thousands of years to preserve health and to diagnose and treat illness. I also integrate Japanese style palpation based practices and protocols into treatments.
